I am committed to creative design, SEO, and marketing as a long-term career. I am a dedicated creative professional with deep expertise in graphic design, strategic marketing, and digital growth. My career spans diverse agency environments where I developed strong skills in visual storytelling, branding, and integrated digital strategy. After completing my qualification at CPIT (ARA), I spent nearly a decade working across multiple advertising agencies, followed by an overseas experience. On returning to New Zealand, I freelanced for a range of agencies before establishing my own creative design and marketing business, XDC.nz. My work covers a broad range of disciplines including logo design, brand development for digital and print, B2B and B2C marketing, web design, signage, SEO, and brand asset management. I thrive on crafting compelling brand narratives through considered design—whether that’s signage, point-of-sale, brochures, corporate collateral, or social media content across imagery and video. Alongside design, I bring advanced capability in SEO, content strategy, and digital marketing. I am highly proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop), Figma, Miro, Mailchimp, HubSpot, and multiple CMS platforms including WordPress, Rocketspark, and Squarespace. I also have strong conceptual and content writing skills developed through many years running my own magazine as editor, designer, and production artist. Outside of work, I remain hands-on creatively through photography and videography, having majored in photography and studied under Lloyd Park and Stan Daniels. I stay actively engaged with emerging design trends, marketing technologies, and evolving digital platforms. With a broad cross-platform skill set, I am now seeking a new challenge where I can lead, mentor, and contribute at a senior level. I am loyal, collaborative, and enjoy bringing energy and positivity to a team environment. I am excited by the opportunity to contribute to an organisation that values strategic thinking, meaningful design, and real business impact. I see myself adding value as a Senior Graphic Designer, Brand Designer, or Senior Creative Team Lead with advanced marketing expertise—translating complex ideas into engaging, effective visual communication that drives growth and connection.…I am committed to creative design, SEO, and marketing as a long-term career.
